Proceeding contribution from Lord Mackay of Clashfern (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 14 July 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Parliamentary Standards Bill.

Parliamentary Standards Bill

I will make one small point. The code is prepared by IPSA after consultation. It must be laid before the House of Commons and does not come into effect until approved by a resolution of the House of Commons. What happens if the House of Commons declines to approve the resolution?
